Notes
Nutrition Facts about this plate:
- Chicken breasts are a good source of proteins that make you feel full faster( Some people cook this plate with thighs but i prefer breast because it has lower fat %)
- Pineapples are full of water and fibers which is good for a better digestion
- You can replace white rice with brown rice for more fibers Regarding food safety:
-I prefer you separate the cutting boards that you are using, so use one for raw meat/chicken and one for vegetables to avoid contamination or any bacterial infection
- NEVER wash your meat or chicken before cooking to avoid bacterial contamination
- ALWAYS wash your vegetables with vinegar and salt.
